busyness

Today my blog is nine and a half hours late. I had thought about it earlier but I didnt do it. I was in the car and I thought hey Maybe I wont do it today. Its alright to skip  a day. But then the thought came to my mind Are you to busy to tell people about Jesus. Then I had a conversation with myself / a miniature lecture that It doesnt matter How much stuff you have to do you should never be to busy to tell people about Jesus. What if Jesus would have said Oh Im to busy to die on the cross for your sins. Its your problem now. We are only on a Earth a short time in a glimpse of eternity. Once we die none of the busyness matters. You dont want jesus to say well you were to busy to serve me. Im to busy to let you into heaven do you? Then you might make up some lameo excuse and be like but i still thought about you everyday. Well I think about my friends that are across the country everyday. That doesnt mean that I worship them. Sometimes people just get to intensely involved/wrapped up in what they are doing to even think about their creator the one who made them. Just because you are involved in ministry you might not be qualified in ministry. You can preach the Gospel everyday because you have a passion for Jesus, but passion without knowledge leads to destruction. Then you might not be able to tell why something failed. But then I thought well I am never to busy to tell people about Jesus. because in the end thats all that matters anyway not any of this other stuff that we fill our life with. Not any of these distractions. When you get to heaven its not going to matter what kind of job you had or how much money you made, its not going to matter what school you went to if you even went to school and what your grades are. Matthew 6:19-21 says “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.  So where is your heart? Is it somewhere other than being focused on Jesus? If it is what are you going to be about it. Stop being busy with lifeless things but be focused on the one who gives us life.  Todays song is called This is the stuff by francesca Battistelli.
I lost my keys in the great unknown
And call me please 'Cuz I can't find my phone

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

45 in a 35
Sirens and fines while I'm running behind
Whoa

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

So break me of impatience
Conquer my frustrations
I've got a new appreciation
It's not the end of the world
Oh Oh Oh

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff
Someone save me
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
And I've gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

Oh Oh Oh Oh
This is the stuff You use
